Must-Have Late-Round Picks

The 2021 NFL season is just around the corner and fantasy drafts are in full swing at this point. Everyone knows who to pick in the first round, but what about in the last round? Or the last couple of rounds? Who are the players that you need to be looking out for as you […]

Mid-Round Draft Values - Running Backs

Once you reach the mid-to-late rounds of drafts, everyone wants to draft high-upside picks that can provide a great return on value. You can afford to take risks on a variety of different players, including prospects, forgotten veterans, players returning from injuries, or even skilled players with potential playing time concerns. It's essential to have […]

Must-Have Backup Running Backs

After a turbulent season in 2020, Week 1 is right around the corner. Historically, most leagues aren't won by who is taken in the first few rounds of fantasy drafts. Instead, it's by who finds those "value" options later on. Also, a majority of the most successful league managers remain committed to searching the waiver […]

Must-Have Tight Ends

In fantasy football, understanding the importance of the tight end position can provide an enormous edge when it comes to fantasy scoring. Since 2018, there have been a total of 11 tight ends that have exceeded 200 fantasy points a year. Three of them belong to Travis Kelce. Two of them belong to Darren Waller, […]

Late-Round Draft Values - Tight Ends

Once you reach the later rounds of drafts, everyone wants to draft high-upside picks that can provide a great return on value.

Personally, I love season-long wagers. Yes, injuries can derail what may be a surefire season; however, if you really believe […]

Longtime Tennessee Titans defensive tackle Jurrell Casey announced his retirement from the NFL on Thursday.

Deeper Tight End Sleepers to Target

With two weeks until the start of the NFL season, many fantasy managers are moving from participating in best-ball leagues to starting to prepare for redraft and home leagues. However, that doesn't have to mean you give up on some of your favorite sleepers. I've been pretty consistent in arguing that the term sleeper is […]

Darrynton Evans Placed On The Injured Reserve

Tennessee Titans running back Darrynton Evans (knee) was placed on injured reserve Thursday. He will miss at least three games and won't be eligible to return until Week 4. The 23-year-old has had trouble staying on the field and was limited to five games in 2020 due to a hamstring injury. Running back Brian Hill […]

Today's fantasy football profile will take a look at second-year quarterback Jalen Hurts by looking at his positives, his concerns, and a variety of other important information in determining his fantasy outlook for 2021.

The King's 2021 One-Man Fantasy Football Mock Draft

Now that the preseason is officially over, I have delivered my annual exercise that I have been doing since the 1990s, the one-man mock draft. In this article, I attempt to sit in the draft chairs of all participants in a 12-team PPR league with four points for a TD pass. Starting skill position requirements […]

Tight End Rankings Analysis – PPR Leagues

Tight ends might not rack up the yardage receivers do, but they can match their counterparts in the receptions department. While only two tight ends broke the 1,000-yard barrier (Travis Kelce and Darren Waller) and two had double-digit touchdowns (Kelce and Robert Tonyan) in 2020, five were targeted over 100 times and eight had 60 […]

Tight Ends To Avoid in Fantasy Drafts?

What will be your tight end strategy in your upcoming drafts? Do you punt the position and play the streamer game all season? Do you grab one of the elite TE early and secure that position on your roster for the entire season? Any strategy you employ will obviously depend on if the draft falls to […]

Russell Gage (WR, ATL) - 2021 Fantasy Football Draft Sleepers

BALLER MOVE: Target Around ~170 Overall (PPR) CURRENT ADP: ~192.8 ANALYSIS: Gage is no stranger to lining up as the No. 2 WR next to Calvin Ridley, as he did so all of those times you bemoaned Julio Jones being injured. I realize Kyle Pitts is viewed as the No. 2 in ATL and he’ll certainly get his, but […]

Qadree Ollison (RB, ATL) - 2021 Fantasy Football Draft Sleepers

BALLER MOVE: Target Around ~230 Overall CURRENT ADP: ~249 ANALYSIS: New year, new backfield, new coach. Todd Gurley is gone and so is Julio Jones. The Falcons will establish a new identity on offense, especially in the running game with a void at running back. While Mike Davis is the presumptive favorite to start, it's doubtful he resembles a workhorse back. […]

Five Running Back Sleepers to Target

Players from all 32 teams have reported to their training camps, which has inspired many fantasy managers to increase their participation in best-ball leagues. Some of you are also preparing your strategy for upcoming drafts in redraft leagues. It is highly recommended that you remain flexible in your decision-making based upon the flow of every […]

Josh Reynolds Returns To Practice Tuesday

Tennessee Titans Josh Reynolds (Achilles) returned to practice on Tuesday. He reportedly was dealing with an Achilles injury and missed practice for most of last week. The 26-year-old is in line to be the Titans WR3 behind A.J. Brown and Julio Jones. Reynolds is someone to monitor in deep-league formats after hauling in 52 receptions […]

Zack Moss (RB, BUF) - 2021 Fantasy Football Draft Sleepers

BALLER MOVE: Target Around ~90 Overall CURRENT ADP: ~101 ANALYSIS: Bills Beat Writer for The Athletic, Joe Buscaglia, believes that "if he continues to improve, [Zack Moss] could be a 60 to 70 percent snap player in 2021." He only eclipsed a 60% snap share twice his rookie season, but that's likely a result of a […]

Mike Davis (RB, ATL) - 2021 Fantasy Football Draft Values

BALLER MOVE: Target Around ~45 Overall CURRENT ADP: ~54 ANALYSIS: I don't think I'm introducing you to anything new in Mike Davis by now, but here we are. Backing up Christian McCaffrey for a large part of the 2020 season, Davis was insanely productive, and that allowed him to finish the year as an RB1 when the season […]

All-Sleeper Team - 2021 Fantasy Football

Imagine if you had to draft a fantasy football team but could only pick players from the 10th round on. That's the exercise I undertook once again. Last year, I put forth my All-Sleeper Team based on a submission to an expert ranker platform and this will be a reprisal of that column updated for […]

Javian Hawkins Released By The Titans

The Tennessee Titans released running back Javian Hawkins on Tuesday. The Atlanta Falcons and the Titans have now released him. Hawkins, who recently signed with the Titans, rushed for 49 yards and a touchdown while hauling in one reception for seven yards in the preseason finale against the Chicago Bears. The 21-year-old averaged 5.8 yards […]

The Tennessee Titans have a plan in place to prepare wide receiver Julio Jones (leg) to be ready for Week 1 against the Arizona Cardinals. Titans reporter Jim Wyatt released this update via his Twitter account on Monday, citing Titans head coach Mike Vrabel as the source. Jones has yet to begin practicing with his […]

Tight End Rankings Analysis - Standard Scoring

Tight end is one of the most difficult positions to draft for in fantasy due to the lack of elite talent at the position. Once the top-five guys have been drafted, it becomes much trickier for managers to pick a potential TE1 just because of things like small roles, unproven NFL talent, etc. Luckily, there […]
